Not to get off course, but this is just too funny not to tell.
I used to work at the Toyota plant in Indiana. We had an "ER" type center there at the plant. Two trama rooms, trama shower, 5 regular examination room, and every drug and piece of machinery you can think of. The only thing we didn't have was an x-ray.
Anyway, we were super safe when we did any kind of transport. We did the usual backboard and c-collar, cross tape, blah blah. We were usually on a first name basis with most of the workers so we joked around with them a lot. Quite often as we're getting vitals we would write the info down on the tape that ran across their forehead. No matter how much they were in pain it was funny as hell when they look straight up at you and you know they're thinking: Is he writing something on my head? LOL To give the docs a laugh we often used the abbreviation FDGB.
Fall down, go boom
After a while we were told not to do that anymore. Okay, so we did it depending on the doc on duty at the time.
Gosh I miss the good ol' days.
Chimp
I try to stay up on the common ones at least, but every so often there's a good head-scratcher...particularly if the patient isn't at home and we don't have ready access to the actual bottles.
Guess that means she liked me.
